I want to update my date field in my database everytime when the record is changed. I do not want to do this by using a macro and I cannot make it word by using the before update function. In the before update I have tried the following without success (nothing happens):
Private Sub Modified_Date_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Me![Modified Date] = Now()
End Sub
I am currently updating an old Db which rosters staff. One of the enhancements will allow the user to automatically allocate staff details to a Roster after a given date. i.e. Roster date 20th Feb 15, repeat for 3 days. 21st 22nd 23rd Feb 15. I have created a form with a medium date field and then a Combo box with drop down values of 1 thru 7 days. I want to link the combo box value to the Date box.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a query that is based off of a union query
SELECT clvpertech.clvtech1 AS Technician, Sum(clvpertech.CLVCode) AS CLVs
FROM clvpertech
GROUP BY clvpertech.clvtech1;
This is returning a sum of all the procedures a technician does for the entire database.
This is working.
I need to break this down by day, week , month, and year base off of the datecomp1 or datecomp2 or datecomp3 or datecomp4 fields having a date in them.
I made this query to get the daily results and it works
SELECT clvpertech2.clvtech1 AS Technician, Sum(clvpertech2.CLVCode) AS CLVs
FROM clvpertech2
WHERE (((clvpertech2.datecomp1)=Date$())) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp2)=Date$())) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp3)=Date$())) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp4)=Date$()))
GROUP BY clvpertech2.clvtech1;
How can I add different queries to get the results by breaking down the date field for year, week, and month?
I tried this for the month but I get Invalid Procedure Call when I try to run it???
SELECT clvpertech2.clvtech1 AS Technician, Sum(clvpertech2.CLVCode) AS CLVs
FROM clvpertech2
WHERE (((clvpertech2.datecomp1)=DatePart("mmm",[datecomp1]))) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp2)=DatePart("mmm",[datecomp2]))) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp3)=DatePart("mmm",[datecomp3]))) OR (((clvpertech2.datecomp4)=DatePart("mmm",[datecomp4])))

I am trying to do an auto time stamp in a data access page without having to go to new record. What I am doing is farming out parts of a record to different departments, and I want to time stamp each time each department performs their query, but I want to be able to display the data for the department, and store the timestamp in the original table.
Everything is stored under the table [Appointments] and different departments enter certain things. For instance, Reception gives the customer a ticket # which they enter into the database based on the query for the customer appointment. On the data-access page, I want them to be able to see their check in time. I am able to do this with an expression, but I can't store it in the field. Here's what I have:
Expr1:Now() (this is in the query)
In the data access page I display Expr1 with no problem. How do I get the field [Reception time stamp] to equal Expr1? When I try to do it in the query, it treats it as another expression and doesn't store it in the field (Reception time stamp = Expr1)
Is there a way to assign a field the value of an expression in queries or data access pages?
In other words, for the field I have named "Reception Time Stamp" is their anyway to plug in the Now() value when I do my query? Not search for Now() but have it show Now() when I use the query in a data access page without having to create new record. I know how to do it when you time stamp it with new record, but how can I do it with a query that pulls up an existing record that more info is being updated on it.
Table Demographics:
Account Number (Primary)
Name
Address
SSN
DOB
Table Appointments:
Appointment Number (Primary Autonumber)
Appointment Date
Appointment Time
Account Number (Relationship tied to Demographics)
Reception Ticket #
Reception Timestamp
Cashier Amount Collected
Cashier Timestamp
Relationship is One to Many (One Demographic to Many Appointments)
Everybody will be entering data on a data access page using internet explorer, which makes this more tricky, as it would be easy to do using forms. So here's how it works. Appointments enters customer information, appt date, appt time, and account number.
Reception pulls up by date and name(queries) the appointment, and then enters a ticket number (Like taking a number to be waited upon) After they enter this and write this ticket number, I want an auto-time stamp to be saved under the appointment table for reception time stamp.
Then, when their number gets called, the cashier pulls up the patient by ticket number(queries) and collects money from the customer. After they write the amount they collected, I need an auto-time stamp.
The reason I need to auto time stamp is so I can calculate time difference from the customer walking in the door and going out the door. The main reason this has proven difficult is because I am doing all data entry on data access pages, and everybody will be using internet explorer. Another reason is because almost all info is being saved under appointments, and each department only enters a couple of things towards completing the appointment record.
Is it possible to modify data values in a cross tab query?
I tried and it won't let me delete or type anything.
Thanks.
I have a table that has a field that holds a total. Through historic reasons the total in a (relatively) small number of cases is wrong. I have analysed and worked out what the difference should be and have created a table with the value that is missing. I basically want to add the 2 together.
So I have
Table1 Field1 Value1
Table2 Field2 Value2
I want table 1 to be
Table1 Field1 (Value1+Value2)
Programming wise I would just have
Value1 = Value1 + Value2
How do I go about doing this in a query or some other whizzy way?
I have created a database for 2/3 users (will progress to more once the system has been smoothed over) who will have the db.file open from 9-5 and will be consistently adding and changing data within 2/3 forms. Most of the time but not always a message comes up saying,
"You do not have exclusive access to this database at this time. Any changes you make may not be allowed to be saved later"
I can understand that it can create data corruption if multiple users are allowed to edit and modify the same data at the same time but surely a database can't be that limited. I thought that splitting the database into a front end on a local server and then a back end on my computer would solve the problem but everyone who is using the front-end still experiences the same problem.
How to be able to overcome issues with multiple users access the same forms and tables? Even when another user is editing one form and another is editing a different form the message will still appear.
I'm having a problem trying to update a date field from a button.
I have a form called Add_New_Domain which runs from a table called Domain_Names.
Within the form there is a field called Expiry_Date which tells me when the domain is set to expire. When I first create an entry I manually enter a date in here.
However, every year when the domain renews I would like to increase this date by exactly a year by clicking a button which is also on the form.
I have a bunch of charts in my forms, and my boss wants to be able to adjust axes. I have added a context menu that brings up a little form and takes values that are then thrown into the graph by way of a function. URL....Here's the current code:
Code:
Public Function AdjustTREFAxis()
'See form fTREFaxis
Dim objChart1 As Object
Dim objAxis1 As Object
[code]....
notes:
-ignore the global vars, they are a temporary measure.
-"Graph19" I know, not good. I never expected to call it in code though , I'll fix it later
-the while loop keeps the rest of the code from running until the axes have been submitted.
Ok, so this code works for the x and y1 axes. I assumed that Axes(3) would iterate to the Y2 axis, it does not...I also found that after you change the axis the changes are persistent for the graph even upon repaint/requerying it. This is problematic and I need a way to set an On Load event that resets the graph to "autoscale"
Lacking that, how to access the Y2 axis, or how to reset the axes to autoscale that would be keen.
I have a database for the clients at my work place.
The main table with PK ie FRED001 has main client details (address DOB etc) then i have numerous other tables ' relationship one to many' with their investment details (lots of investments per client), appointment details, pension details, health details etc. The data base works fine in table form all the links master to child work fine but now i need to let the rest of the office loose on the system i am trying to create more user friendly form system with command buttons etc
I have created a form for each table some of which have sub forms in etc on their own they appear to work fine you can view all the records and add a new one
I am having problems linking the numerous forms together and when they are linked together (i also need the child form to auto insert the code from the master form? since it comes out blank at the moment!). At the moment i have the main form with command buttons on it to open up the child forms. this works i can see the current investments already entered on the database but it will not let me add a new investment or a new appointment etc it says that by adding a new invesment under the client code i am breaking the code no duplication rules?? but the child tables are set up with the clientcode allowed to be duplicated ??
I need to have each child table in a new form really since there is far too much information for it to all be on sub forms within the main table.
I have tried to also put the forms on tabs but i get the same result.
basically i need to be able to open up the main form at client X then using command buttons or page tabs move to both view their existing investments and add any new investments. Im sure it is something very simple that i have done wrong but i have been trying to solve this for ages now and its getting me more and more wound up ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
I have also tried inserting under tabs a small subform list for each table/formie policy number, surname etc to fill in new policies and the name with a command button to the form ( which should then have the details in?!?!) since i figured if these details were filled in then when i went to the form they should be there but tthat doesn't work either
thanks for any help or suggestions
:confused:
Simple Question: Is there a way to connect two fields in different tables, so that when I enter information in one table, it automatically fills in the appropriate field in the new table?
I would be using a form to enter the data. When I enter information in the form, I want it to automatically update the corresponding fields in the sub-forms, even though they're not displayed in the form. This is especially important when I'm adding new records--the linked (parent/child) fields MUST be updated, of course, or the records won't be linked when I open the record again.
Thanks,
Siena
ETA: Okay, I can see that it does automatically fill in the primary key field, but I need it to fill in at least one other field as well.
I have a access 2010 split database and i need to modify one form on the front end (it is an accde file). However, when i open the Front end, i cannot find the possibility to go into the form design mode.
How do i need to do it? do i need to restart from the unsplit database?
The both the front end and the back end are password protected.
I have a Form with embedded Subform, everything works well as far as moving through records. Scrolling through records on main table via Form brings up correct records of child table on Subform, so the link between the 2 tables is done properly.
I use this logic to lock/unlock a field in the subform.
Code:
Private Sub Form_Current()
If IsNull(Me.Parent!Spec2) Then
Me!Value2.BorderStyle = Transparent
Me!Value2.SpecialEffect = Flat
Me!Value2.BackStyle = Transparent
[Code] ...
I confirmed with debug that the logic does set the properties properly. They are updated once and that's that. Any further passes through the logic do not update on the form. They do pass through correctly, changes are just ignored.
It doesn't matter if I use the logic from the Form and refer down, or in the Subform and refer up, the Subform never gets updated. I tried Repaint, Refresh, Requery, nothing works. I cannot count the permutations I've tried.
hi
i am getting stuck while updating the data in the database table using a command button in the MS Access2003 forms. when i click the command button in the form, a message "Run time 2185: you cant refer to a property or method for a control unless the control has a focus". the code is as follows.
rivate Sub Command10_Click()
Dim query As String
query = "select RESOURCEINFO from tbl_control where CONTROLNAME='" + Combo4.Text + "'"
If (cn.State <> 1) Then
cn.Open "dsn=ABC", "", ""
End If
rs.Open query, cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
RESOURCEINFO.SetFocus
rs.Fields(0) = RESOURCEINFO
rs.Update
rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
cn.Close
Set cn = Nothing
On Error GoTo Err_Command10_Click
DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70
Exit_Command10_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_Command10_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command10_Click
End Sub
i am a beginner. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Test findings showed that when I open a form the data does not update. I added a refresh action after the openform action. If I want to open three forms via the macro, do I need three refresh actions, one after each openform action, or simply a single refresh action that would apply to all three forms.
Scenario 1:OpenForm1, Refresh, OpenForm2 Refresh, OpenForm3, Refresh
Scenario 2:OpenForm1, OpenForm2, OpenForm3, Refresh
I have a form that has combo boxes and text fields (as well as sub forms). There is also a button linked to some code that says'
Private Sub cmdQuote_Click()
'Creates quote date and prints quote
Me.QuoteDate = Now()
Me.cbAgentID.Requery
DoCmd.OpenReport "Quote", acViewPreview, , "BookingID = " & Me.BookingID
End Sub
When the button is pressed the QuoteDate field (it is bound) should be be populated, but unfortunately it is not. I have played with refresh and requery but cannot derive a solution.
My question is this: I have a table where I'm entering employees' hours worked. Basically, it's something like this:
ID WorkerNumberDateworkedTimeStartTimeEnded
121/2/201310:00:00 AM3:00:00 PM
221/3/20132:00:00 AM11:00:00 AM
321/4/201312:15:00 AM11:30:00 AM
421/5/201310:25:00 PM11:00:00 AM
531/2/201311:00:00 AM3:30:00 PM
631/3/201312:00:00 PM10:00:00 PM
731/10/20137:00:00 AM4:00:00 PM
I have a query that (easily) determines how many hours an employee has worked on any given day. What I can't figure out at all, is how to write a query that can figure out how much time an employee had off in between shifts.
Thus far I'm able to run a query that separates this main table into individual workers by their id numbers, but can't figure out how to determine time off between shifts - as the last hour worked one day, and the first hour worked the next day are on two different lines (they are two different table entries).
Hello Tech gurus,
I have a database with existing data, that is not normalized, :eek: and all the data is in one field... This what I am dealing with:
As you notice the first row of data in field1 C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY has 3 spaces to the right the next row ALTORVASTIN has five spaces to the right, the next line LIPITOR has 7 spaces to the right, and so forth, hopefully you get at what I am trying to do, I just looked at the data and it is not showing up in view of the leading spaces, but I am trying to move the data based ONLY on the position of leading spaces, example all data that has 3 leading spaces would go into its own separate column, and all data that has 7 leading spaces would go into a separate column, I have tried to use the left, mid, len functions but I cannot figure out how to move the text and keep it whole only by data position of spaces.
Field1:
C10A CHOLEST&TRIGLY
ATORVASTATIN
LIPITOR
PFIZER
SIMVASTATIN
SIMVASTATIN TEVA
TEVA
M1A ANTIRHEUMATIC N-STEROID
ETODOLAC
ETOPAN
TARO PHARMA

I have a series of forms in my shiny new database and I have added the auto time and auto date fields to the form headers. I have added the code to keep the time ticking over and it all works fine.
Unless the is no data. If for any reason there is nothing in the Details part of the Form, the date and time do not display. As soon as any data shows up, so do the date and time.
The VBA code is running in either case so I am a little baffled. Usually Google is my friend but not in this case.
I am using Access 2013 on a win 7 machine.
I need to be able to update all the date records in a table using an update query. Any ideas of what i have to put in the 'update to' box to get all the dates to change from dd/mm/2005 to be dd/mm/2006
cheers for any help
I have a table which contains dates in the format (mm/dd/yyyy) as well as other information, I am trying to get an ASP website to update the date with values chosen by the user. The problem is that when using the UPDATE command it returns an error, saying the syntax is wrong. Here is my SQL statement and the error message it produces, if anyone has got any ideas, please let me know -:
"UPDATE Users SET Name = '"& UpName &"', DOB = #"& AddMonth &"/"& AddDay &"/"& AddYear &"# WHERE ID = "& ID &" "
The error message I get in return is -:
Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in date in query expression '#//#'.
Thanks in Advance

I have a form in access where i need to select a record between two different dates. For example i have a "valid_from" and "valid_to" field. I have an unbound text box with short date format and calendar control inserted for users to select a date. This is named "drpdate".
I have a bunch of other filters also in the same form. Now my issue is that i have not been able to figure out how to put in a SQL statement which would give me the data which is between the "Valid_from" and "valid_to" fields based on the date selected in the unbound text box.
If the selected date does not meet the criteria, then it needs to be give the results from another table (which i have already done).
I have a date entry textbox.
The user is copying a date from an old form.
Sometimes the form will have the date entered as 00/00/97
How can I change the month and day to 01/01 and of course leave the year as it was.
I've tried using split with no success.
I was wondering if anyone knows any way to have the date/time field in my database automaticaly update itself to the current date when I change part of the data in that same line.
For instance, if I change the entry for last name, is there anyway to have the date field automaticaly change to the current date without me entering it manualy? Thanks for your time.
How do I set up a date field so that it changes to the current date whenever any other field in the record is changed?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a form that each day needs to be filled in by staff of their activities.
By selecting a date, I want to the textbox to display the contents of the comments memo pad field in the table (tblToday...columns are t_date and t_comments).
My very limited access and previous SQL knowledge has eluded me and cannot fathom how to get the text box to show data based on the date selected?
